Former Ghana international Asamoah Gyan says the National Democratic Congress (NDC) needs to come clear with their 24-hour economy policy as he believes it’s not a ‘new’ thing.
According to Gyan, some sectors in the country already run a similar policy urging the newly-voted government to commit to improving it.
The policy was one of the NDC’s campaign messages and played a strong role in their return to power for the next four years.
Gyan, in an Instagram live session on Thursday, January 2, questioned the true intentions of the policy.
“It already exists. Police stations, hospitals, and filling stations already operate on a 24-hour basis,” he said.
“If the government says ‘24-hour economy,’ they should focus on improving it. It’s not a new policy.”
Gyan before deciding to step away from politics was chosen to be part of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign team ahead of the 2024 general elections.
